Guest guest Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Okay, TMI, I know, but that's what y'all are here for, right? =) My poop has been varying degrees of looseness for a while now, but it's consistently had an orange tint to it. Not red, like blood, but orange. Hmm..Any ideas? Also, it's been kind of pasty whenever it's solid, and it takes quite a few wipes to clean my butt. I remember this being discusses a while back, but I can't really remember what was discussed about it. Thanks! Pour Dieu, pour terre, Alyssa 15 UC April 2008, diagnosed Sept 2008 SCD June 2009 (restarted) No meds =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Are you eating a lot of carrots? It could be the iron? I don't know about pastiness. Congrats on coming off prednisone. I'm curious that your doc lets you go off meds- as mine is for meds all the time.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 That's awesome. Too bad most of my BMs are in the late morning while I'm at work. I rarely have one at home. What I've learned to do is wet napkins before going into the stall and this helps tremendously. At home, the sink is right next to me. I'm def bookmarking this though!!!! Thanks!!!
